RE: [Homebrew_PCBs] Use for microwave oven ?

2016-02-14 by Tony Smith

What are you doing with the inverter?

If it happens to be a Panasonic inverter microwave oven, grab it with glee and store it away for a future project..... If we lived closer, I would take it off your hands.

Don't you think all this talk about freecycle or dropping her off at
the side of the road is a bit premature? I'm sure there is _something_
she can do in the shop, where you can keep an eye on her, even if you
can't trust her alone in the kitchen any more. ;-)
 
Joking aside, I'm looking for another microwave oven transformer to
make a spot welder. The thing is I seem to fix them all up so I never
get the transformer.
 
I don't think it is terribly useful as a microwave, in the shop.
Yes there is the occassional heating requirement but typically I don't
dare to use a microwave because I don't know how these odd materials
will behave. If you did the same thing regularly you could experiment.
I think you can even make small metal castings with a microwave oven.
